Headlight Bulb Removal/Installation: Notes

CAUTION:

A halogen bulb generates extremely high heat when it is used. If the surface of the bulb is soiled, excessive heat will build up and the light's life will be shortened. When replacing the bulb, hold the metal flange, not the glass.

Disconnect the negative battery cable.
Remove in the order indicated in the figure below.
